Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Perhaps you have heard of this book already, but I just wanted to share a recent find of mine:Flotsam by David Weisner. What a wonderful book! All pictures and no text, it tells the story of an underwater camera found by a child on the beach. He develops the film and sees something amazing!(I won't tell!)
All of my kids are nuts over this book.
Just wanted to share!

Oh, I love that book! So fun, though the younger crew have started looking for other people's cameras.

Such a great book, I need to reserve it again. I'd bet it would inspire us to break out the underwater camera case again! Oh, and the wetsuits, the water temp is still in the upper 70's - Brrr!
